one of the reasons i find it hard to trust...

...is due to people that i allow near, begin to trust, and then discover that they are saying one thing to me and doing another.

Whatever.

Just don't bitch at me when i don't open up, when i act sceptical and when i begin to pull back.

Pffft.

Much wiser to stay two steps back and keep the walls firmly up and view the world with a cynically humorous eye.
